Funding & Finance

There may be serious financial implications if you withdraw from your studies. It may be that you have received a Student Finance overpayment and will have to repay some of your loan. Further information is available from Finance.

The Money Advisers can offer guidance on financial issues. If you are struggling with your finances you may be able to apply for the hardship fund (however if you permanently withdraw you cannot apply for this).

When you permanently withdraw from studies you will become liable for Council Tax. However, you may also become eligible for other benefits.

How to formally withdraw

To make sure you are formally withdrawn, you need to complete the online withdrawal from study form. You can find the link on your SOLE page under the 'Course Information’ tab.

At certain times of the year SOLE may ask you to 're-enrol' before you can withdraw. To enable you to use the online process you may need to contact studentrecords@worc.ac.uk for them to amend your student record for you.
